The head-honchos of the series have decided to go back and edit the second half of the season and tone down the violence.

Short Film Review: Killer Date
In this digital age, the way in which people meet up and date has changed drastically. While some rely on more traditional ways of meeting people, others are relying on various online sites and apps.
